Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA and Banco de Sabadell SA are
in talks over a potential merger, BBVA said Monday.
The two Spanish banks have started a due diligence process and
appointed external advisors.
"No decision has been made in relation to the potential merger
transaction and there is no certainty as to whether any such
decision will be made or, if that is the case, as to the terms and
conditions of a potential transaction," the lender said.
The news comes just after BBVA agreed to sell its U.S.
subsidiary to PNC Financial Services Group Inc. for $11.6
billion.
